Why This Role Matters
At Deliveroo, the hardest problems are not just product problems — they are marketplace problems, spanning customers, partners,
riders, and commercial constraints. This role makes that system actionable.
Why Deliveroo
Our mission is to transform the way you shop and eat, bringing the neighbourhood to your door by connecting consumers,
restaurants, shops and riders. We are transforming the way the world eats and shops by making access to food and products more
convenient and enjoyable. We give people the opportunity to buy what they want, as they want it, when and where they want it.
We are a technology-driven company at the forefront of the most rapidly expanding industry in the world. We are still a small
team, making a very large impact, looking to answer some of the most interesting questions out there. We move fast, value autonomy
and ownership, and we are always looking for new ideas.
Workplace & Benefits
At Deliveroo we know that people are the heart of the business and we prioritise their welfare. Benefits differ by country, but we
offer many benefits in areas including healthcare, well-being, parental leave, pensions, and generous annual leave allowances,
including time off to support a charitable cause of your choice. Benefits are country-specific, please ask your recruiter for more
information.
Diversity
At Deliveroo, we believe a great workplace is one that represents the world we live in and how beautifully diverse it can be. That
means we have no judgement when it comes to any one of the things that make you who you are - your gender, race, sexuality,
religion or a secret aversion to coriander. All you need is a passion for (most) food and a desire to be part of one of the
fastest-growing businesses in a rapidly growing industry.
We are committed to diversity, equity and inclusion in all aspects of our hiring process. We recognise that some candidates may
require adjustments to apply for a position or fairly participate in the interview process. If you require any adjustments, please
don't hesitate to let us know. We will make every effort to provide the necessary adjustments to ensure you have an equitable
opportunity to succeed.
